German to English translations [Non-PRO]
German term or phrase: gehen voll in Hand ueber
The full sentence is "Allerdings ging ein Seitenfluegel voll in antinaive Hand ueber". It's do with a new generation of youth being more realistic than the Hippy generation. I need the word "Hand" to remain in my translation.

However, one wing passed fully into unnaive hands.


Explanation:
A variuation on a theme.
"anti-naive" is a little unusual and does not exist in the dictionaries - but it does get 4 Google hits.
"unnaive" is more common and is the grammatically correct construction - it gets 15 hits on Google.
